Real Band does much more than that John. First it will open Biab songs directly so no need to import anything but Biab is much faster at generating the RT's than RB is so it may be faster to import them than letting RB generate them. You'll have to see what works best for you.

RB is a full blown 48 track audio/midi recorder and sequencer with full mixing capabilities. It can use multiple synths both hardware and software plus record live audio like instruments or vocals. It has 32 midi output ports while Biab only has one. It can use multiple VST/DXi effects plugins for recording and/or mastering. In addition to all that it can generate new Biab tracks on an individual track basis using different styles per track. This is without changing the tracks you already have and allows you to get very creative. This is a most important point, it means you can have your basic song created using one Biab style but you can then add a part like a rhythm guitar say using a different style using either midi or another RT. Start doing some of that with 48 tracks to play with and you soon find yourself trying all kinds of crazy combinations. You will also start creating multiple parts like 3 different drum tracks and layer or mix them in different parts of your song.

It does so much you may ask why use Biab at all and the answer is Biab still does some things that RB won't so both programs are useful and work well together. RB is complex because it does so much, go over to the RB forum and start reading all about it and check out the tutorials too.
